JEFFS TRIAL: Juror: Sentence not a difficult decision

SAN ANGELO, Texas  Mary Harris didn't want to talk about her experience as a juror when she got home.

Her husband, Dan Harris, said that when she returned after the 13-day trial of Warren Jeffs, she didn't say a word about it.

"She was out in the garden all day," he said. Nor did her daughter Nina Reid hear much about the jury experience, other than her mother saying "if she had a trash can she would've thrown up in it," Reid said.

Mary Harris said she is happy to have the trial done with.

Meting out the maximum sentence to Jeffs, she said, came easily to her and her peers after hearing days of testimony and evidence about group sex with underage girls, taking 12-year-old brides, and hearing the audio recording of ritual rape by the leader and spiritual head of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

I can only imagine that working in her garden had given her mind some time to clear itself. I can’t imagine having to listen to testimony... hearing the tapes when that child was held down and raped. I respect most jury members who do their civic duty and force themselves to listen to testimony that will probably haunt them the rest of their lives. IMHO

I hope they look into the families to make sure the children belong to each woman. I think those women need to learn how to be protective mothers. Maybe some parenting classes. Or maybe the ones who gave their 12 yr old daughters over to that POS need jail time. I am not buying the brain washing bs anymore. Not after seeing the one wife riding a Harley. I think its a twisted perverted cult.
